Shah Rukh Khan starrer Dunki released on December 21. The film starring Taapsee Pannu, Boman Irani and Vicky Kaushal among others is directed by Rajkumar Hirani. According to a report in Sacnilk.com, Dunki made Rs 30 crore net domestic on its opening day. This makes it the year’s seventh-biggest opener after Jawan, Animal, Pathaan, Tiger 3, Gadar 2 and Adipurush.
Khan’s previous two releases Pathaan and Jawan made Rs.1000 crores globally, but Dunki sadly couldn’t make a mark on the audience.
On Thursday, Dunki saw an overall occupancy of 29.94%. The NCR region had 1412 shows with approximately 31% occupancy, and Mumbai had 1081 shows which saw an occupancy of around 29.75%. Dunki got a solo release on Thursday but on Friday it will see a clash with Prabhas starrer Salaar which releases on December 22.
Salaar is directed by Prashanth Neel and also stars Prithviraj Sukumaran and Shruti Haasan in pivotal roles.
